2020 NorCal Camping, Wheeling, & Shenanigans

It'll be close... but I think with some luck and a little skill, it can be done.

 

Super easy! I just did my second pair last weekend.

 

I think we can figure it out.

 

If I managed Fordyce without a snorkel I'm pretty sure I can do any trail in Cali without one. lol

 

I've got a jammed up area where one of the mounts needs to go. I would have put them on a couple years ago but for this hangup.

 

I used 5/8" aluminum spacers to move the mount away from the inner fender wall.

 

I don't believe that would help me. The strut hits the SPOD.

 

Flip the bracket.

 

See the spacers?

 

Those look like 10mm sockets...

 

Thats some fancy wiring. You should see my rats nest. Ughh

 

I'm not anywhere up to speed on upgrades, staying mostly stock, what is that fuse block looking thing? Handles winch, lighting?

I used the word 'mount' for the strut mounting bracket.
You used the word "mount" for the aluminum electrical accessory mounting bracket.

That's what confused me. I see what you mean by this last photo. Doh!

It doesn't rub against the reservoir?

 

Is that where those went?!?

It is a fuse box with some relays, and a circuit breaker. The winch is ran direct to the battery, but all extra lighting is ran through this. Ditch lights, rear bumper lights, front bumper lights, under-hood lights. The circuit breakers breaker allows me to easily cut power to all of it.

 

No, the part that's closest to the reservoir on mine is not in the direction I spaced it. There's that clip toward the front of the truck that's barely making contact, but it did that before I put the spacers in. Could just be a poor Pelfrey design...

 

Thank you.

I had to do similar... to move my aux battery in board to clear.

 

Looks like you have a room for a SPST 100A relay in there. My set-up is the same plus the 100A relay. Power goes from bat to relay to circuit breaker. The relay is wired to an add a fuse in the dash that's only ignition hot. That way as soon as I shut my rig off all my aftermarket accessories go dead. No way I want parasitic draw in the middle of BFE. That keeps it from even being possible.

 

I think you mean circuit breaker and not relay.
